yep, nuttier than a fruitcake. Dow 400 occurs when the meteor hit the mahdi pushing the button on the cobalt bomb smack in the head.

If ever there was a geek argument, this is it...ASCII text of 10,000 does indeed translate to 011000100110000001100000011000000110000....

yours in nerdiness,

I don't know, but when you multiply six time nine in base 13, you get 42.

All I did was a base 10 to base 2 conversion. You'll have to explain to me the basis of conversion for the ASCII representaion of 10000.

You'll have to work hard to outgeek me, :)

OK. This makes sense now. I went to this conversion site.

http://www.ronshardwebapps.com/Numbers.asp

You have the ASCII representation of the text of 1 0 0 0 0. I converted the decimal number to a binary number.

Both are equally geekified.
